TALK
How to Increase A/B Convergence Time 10-100 Times
A/B testing is a tricky field especially when the data flow is not enough to converge A/B in a reasonable amount of time. I would love to tell a story how by switching to another most important metric we reduced income traffic 50 times and will tell how we solved this problem using Linearization, Reweighing, Predictive Machine Learning, and Bayes Theorem.
